“You guys aren’t usually very proactive when I call you guys over for meetings, but you guys are very proactive now.” Ten-thousand miles said unhappily.
In the largest conference room in the headquarters of the Qing chef’s Association, seventeen people were sitting upright.
Although it was said to be the largest, the actual headquarters only had two meeting rooms, one big and one small.
Among the 17 people, the Vice Presidents were all present. All the directors were present, and those who should be present and those who shouldn’t were all here. It was a rare sight.
“Chairman, you can’t say that. It’s President Yuan’s order, so we definitely have to come.” The tall director said.
“Vice President, let’s discuss official business,” the shorter director said.
“That’s right. It’s getting late. Why isn’t Secretary Qin here yet?” The directors began to speak at once.
Although these people were tall, thin, and looked ordinary, they were still the mainstays of the cooking industry. For example, the big guy was the first restaurant in Chengdu to get a score of 0.5 yuan.
In addition, the director Kang Hu, who was dressed in red and looked very flashy, was in charge of the restaurant and was honored as “Yuan Shi’s most anticipated chef” last year.
By the way, with the improvement of Yuan Zhou’s food review website, a year-end evaluation system was added last year with Yuan Zhou’s consent.
At the end of the year,”Yuan Zhou’s online food Review’s customers ‘best service”,”Yuan Zhou’s online food review customers’ favorite taste”, and “Yuan Zhou’s personal most anticipated chef” would be selected. The first two would be based on the customers ‘comments while the last one would be based on Yuan Zhou’s personal preference.
The trophy was designed by Yin ya. The base of the trophy was engraved with two words “Yuan Shi”. Kang Hu was able to become the director of the Qing chef Association largely because of this trophy.
He had no choice. The brand of Yuan Zhou was too useful in China.
Back to the main topic, Kang Hu was only 30 years old this year and had been affirmed by Yuan Zhou. Therefore, he didn’t really listen to Yuan Zhou and was still muttering something.
Liao Yue looked at his watch and said, “I’ll get Secretary Qin to make a statistics table. It should be done in a while.”
Liao Yue’s words were more effective than Wanli ‘s, so Kang Hu shut up.
The main Affairs of the green chefs ‘Association were in fact handled by the Vice Chairman Liao Yue, the Secretary Qin Kelly and the chairman Wan Li. It was these three people who went to see Yuan Zhou.
Master Cheng repeated every word that Yuan Zhou had said clearly. His master’s original words were “let the management personnel of the green Chef society”, so he did the same.
As an apprentice, master Cheng was always like this. He would never try to figure out Yuan Zhou’s thoughts. If it were someone else, they would wonder why Yuan Zhou suddenly made such an arrangement. However, zhaomei Cheng would only focus on completing Yuan Zhou’s orders wholeheartedly.
After the call, he hung up without even asking Qin Kaili if she understood.
Qin Kaili looked at her phone with a bitter smile. In terms of seniority, master Cheng was a generation older than Qin Kaili. Therefore, Qin Kaili didn’t know what to say.
“I have heard everything master Cheng said, but I don’t seem to understand it.” Qin Kaili mumbled to herself.
Firstly, he didn’t know why the president would suddenly make this suggestion. Secondly, other than the members, the directors, vice presidents, and secretaries were all management personnel. If that was the case, there would be too many people.
Thinking of this, Qin Kaili immediately came up with a plan with Liao Yue and Wan Li.
“Master Cheng just called me.” Qin Kaili said.
“Master Cheng also called me just now. However, he was in a discussion with the sponsor. When I called back, the sponsor turned off his phone.” Liao Yue said.
“What did master Cheng say?” Wan Li asked.
“It’s like this …” Qin Kaili repeated it seriously.
This matter was worth pondering over.
“Let’s call the president and ask. ” Liao Yue said.
“I think so too. We have to figure out the president’s intentions. Otherwise, if a group of people were to go over and disturb the president, it would be too much of a mistake.” Qin Kaili thought so too.
As a result, Yuan Zhou received a call while he was preparing the ingredients for lunch.
Hearing the doubts of Qin Kelly and the others, Yuan Zhou explained it to them. Qin Kelly and the others finally understood.
As the chairman, Yuan Zhou not only proposed the young chefs ‘exchange meeting to spread the reputation of the green chefs’ Association in the Asian region, but he also proposed the young chefs ‘exchange meeting.
He also wanted to do his job as the president, which was to help Liao Yue and the others in cooking.
Of course, he really didn’t have that much time. Therefore, the smart and quick-witted Yuan Zhou thought of a way that had the best of both worlds.
During the time when Yuan Zhou was sculpting or practicing his cooking skills, Liao Yue and the others could come and observe. After all, the knife skills that Yuan Zhou used to sculpt were refined by himself. He had integrated many knife skills of various cuisines, as well as the skills of ice and wood sculpting.
To use the most official description, even the system said it was good!
If Liao Yue and the others could absorb a little of it, then Yuan Zhou’s efforts wouldn’t have been in vain.
“Well, it seems that the homework for recruiting girls is still too little. I have to practice. I can’t even do such a small thing well.” Yuan Zhou muttered to himself.
Let’s mourn for master Cheng.
Liao Yue understood the president’s intention, so he asked Qin Kaili to make a list. The 17 people went to the meeting room in batches.
“I’m sorry to keep you waiting,” Qin Kaili said.”This knife skill observation is an opportunity that President Yuan has given to our Green chef’s Association. I won’t say much about this.”
“No need. The reward for the champion of our young chef exchange meeting is to be guided by the chairman once, which has caused a sensation in the Asian cooking world. We can observe without doing anything. It’s simply too lucky.”
“Actually, I think it’s normal for it to cause such a sensation. It’s like receiving guidance from a Grandmaster in wuxia. If you have any questions, it’ll be an opportunity to break through your bottleneck.”
“Don’t read so many wuxia novels. Although observation is not guidance, I’ve heard of the president’s knife skills for a long time. We’ve always thought that the president is the most qualified chef to be the knife King.”
“Saber King, you’re talking about the sign hanging on white bottle road? Hehe, I seriously doubt that Huaiyang and his gang would give this tag to anyone. ”
Everyone in the green Chef society knew that the observation proposed by Yuan Zhou was a very good opportunity. However, they accidentally deviated from the topic as they were talking.
“In order to make things more convenient for you and not cause you any trouble, I asked Kelly to come up with a simple plan.” Liao Yue raised his voice and suppressed the discussion.
The crowd’s discussion gradually died down.
“Kelly, tell me about your arrangements.” Liao Yue arrived again.
“Alright,” he said. “Excluding me, we have a total of 16 people,” Qin Kaili said.”Four people will go each time, so we’ll be divided into four groups. If you don’t have any objections, I’ll announce the names of the groups.”
The reason why Qin Kaili excluded herself was that she was not a chef. Like Zhong Lili, she also graduated from the School of Management.
After Qin Kaili finished speaking, a director opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything. He just quietly waited for the guest list to be announced.
This kind of thing didn’t pay attention to modesty. Therefore, the first batch was the four most famous chefs of the green Chef society apart from Yuan Zhou, Liao Yue, Wan Li, Kang Hu, and the big guy.
Using fame to rank, this was the most irrefutable thing. The first batch of four people who came to watch began to prepare.
Yuan Zhou had just sent off the last batch of lunch customers.
But at the same time, he received a guest.
The man was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He was wearing plain clothes and was a little handsome, but his long hair basically covered his eyes.
Her hair was a little long, but it wasn’t long hair that she had grown on purpose. It felt like her hair hadn’t been cut for a long time. However, she was clean, so it was a little contradictory.
For Yuan Zhou, he was a strange yet familiar person.
Why did she use the strange yet familiar word? it was because this man had come to the restaurant twice, but they didn’t communicate much.
“Boss Yuan, it’s my birthday today,” The man said.
“We can order an all-fish banquet for birthday.” “But I still have to come and line up in the evening,” Yuan Zhou answered.
“No, I don’t order the all-fish banquet. Even if I did, I wouldn’t be able to finish it all by myself. It’s just that no one remembers that today is my birthday. So I came here to tell you, boss Yuan. In this way, someone will know.” The man said with a smile.
“Oh, then wait a moment.” Yuan Zhou turned around and took out a mantou from the restaurant. He had prepared it for himself. Then, he quickly put a candle on it.
Looking at the man, Yuan Zhou said seriously,””Zhou difei wishes you a Happy Birthday.”
The man, also known as Zhou difei, was stunned. He had not expected Yuan Zhou to remember his name.
Zhou difei had indeed been to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant twice. The year before last and the year before last, it was also on his birthday. He had mentioned his name to the waitress because they had the same surname. He had never expected that Yuan Zhou would still remember his name.
“Thank you, boss Yuan. I’m really grateful that you still remember my name.” Zhou difei only wanted someone to know his birthday, but he didn’t expect to get even more.
“You’re my customer. It’s my responsibility as a chef to remember the name and taste of my customers. ” Yuan Zhou said.
Zhou difei couldn’t help but smile when he heard this. The prim and proper compass really lived up to his reputation.
“Then, can I still come over on my birthday next year?” Zhou difei asked as he carefully bit into the slightly sweet bun.
“As long as the shop is still open.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said naturally.
After Zhou difei finished eating, he thanked Yuan Zhou again and then left. Yuan Zhou, on the other hand, went to buy some bread next door silently.
He had been carving in the afternoon, so he had originally planned to have steamed buns for lunch. But now that there were no more buns, he had to go buy some bread.
Yuan Zhou had already prepared the materials for sculpting and was just waiting for Liao Yue and the others.
